Cold and mineral-rich but with sun that makes Rieslings as succulent as they are perfectly seasoned with salt and racy acidity. Peter Lauer makes some of our very favorite Saar wines. He’s best known for his forward-leaning dry wines.

Description

Peter Lauer Sekt Saar Riesling Brut 2021

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Riesling from vines of up to 100 years old, in the Ayl village of Saar, Germany.

Taste Profile: Fresh and vibrant with good weight and balance. The mousse is fine and gentle, and there is good length and power with a nutty / white almond finish.

Winemaking Process: The Saar Riesling Cremant Brut is made by traditional bottle fermantation, the same as used to make Champagne. The wines are aged in bottle for 12 to 20 months before disgrorgement in the cellar of the historic Joh. Förster winery in Trier-Süd

Complex & Classic Sparklings

From buttery brioche to baked apple and toast, this style encapsulates vintage Champagnes and other aged sparkling wines from around the world

Methode Champenoise

The key element of the traditional method is secondary fermentation in the bottle, often achieved by adding a liqueur de tirage to the base wine. The end result is a soft, fine bubly mouthfeel
